Zarif: US not Seriously Willing to Fight ISIL
2015-05-19
[ALMANAR.LB] Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif has said that Tehran does not see real US intentions to confront ISIL and the growing conflict.
B.O.'s serious about lesbians and gays and transgendered and whatever the hell else they can think up having to do with genitalia.
"We see no willingness on the part of the United States to seriously resist ISIL," Zarif told the Spiegel news outlet on Saturday.
It's more important to lynch a few cops so the rest of them don't get uppity.
Zarif explained that ISIL was bent on destabilizing the Middle East, and Iran will support any real efforts to counter the group at both a global and regional level.
Fund-raising for the next election's way more important than a few thousand vicious killers with turbans.
He emphasized in particular that the West was also part of the problem saying that, "People, who were born and raised in the West, now are in Iraq and Syria beheading the victims or burning them alive," the minister added.
It's more important to import more people who'll be likely to vote like their ward-heelers tell them.
According to the US National Counterterrorism Center, more than 20,000 foreigners from 90 countries, including thousands of westerners, are suspected to have joined ISIL over the last three years.

#6  9/11 made many of us serious.

Foreign policy has never been a strength of the left. They tend to either reflexively side with America's enemies or think what they are told to think. Either way their judgement seems muddled.

#5  As has been said many times before on the 'burg, the primary question is who're you fighting and why?

If we were serious we could flatten the whole place. But, we are not serious.Even 9/11 didn't really make us serious.

#4  Judging from the collective behavior of the regime, one would have to agree with the headline.

#1 Just goes to show---even Obama is not totally worthless. Moot question. He might be good for a door stop, anchor, or wheel stop but I dunno.
